Odd hobby confession

Confession. So here it is: Know how when you're at a new building -or heck, a familiar room - and need to know what time it is, so you look around for a clock on the wall*, only to find that it's, like, 3.14 hours off?

I think to myself "If I worked here, that'd suck!" So I carried a few batteries in my purse, and "rescued" 2 clocks in the last 2 weeks. In public places. Here's a tip: get in when no one's super paying attention. Because it's awkward when they're like, "Hey. What are you doing?" It's hard to sell "um, nothing. I always carry a spare AA battery in my purse."

(Based on my research, most clocks use a AA, for any of you copy-cat clock fixers.)

*just pretend someone just emitted one of those EMP pulses and shut down your phone & your watch sucks, and is never on time, anyways. You should really get a nicer watch (kidding. I don't wear a watch. It'd just get caught trying to climb up the wall to reach the clock. )

Ha!
